<p>A star coupled network uses ribbon fibre between the nodes and a passive star coupler in order to achieve a wideband bus. At each node is disposed a transmitter module and a receiver module which each include a respective silicon substrate and are each capable of transmitting/receiving, respectively, a plurality of optical signals and multiplexing from/ demultiplexing to a plurality of low data rates employed at the nodes. High data rates between the nodes and star coupler are achieved by simultaneous transmission over the ribbon fibres without the need for similarly high bandwidth lasers and receivers. <IMAGE></p> |
